What happens when you blend DnB with Reggae influences, and then add Derpy to the mix? Unpredictable musical wonders! With only the finest musical tastes, Spikey Wikey delivers in style with this piece from the recently released Party’s Over that’s infused with our community pony mascot… And we are happy to hear her, even if she seems to be causing trouble again! I just don’t know what went wrong!
Electronic
Whirlwind – In the mind of a Killer | Dark Ambient / Drone
Musical experiments in the dark must be so fun! Our awesome drummer friend Whirlwind gave it a try and golly, that is such an intense atmosphere! And along with those faded vocal samples, it really is spooky. Not to mention that only-slightly disturbing cover art! A very successful experiment for sure!
Koa – Broken Wings (PonyFireStone Remix) | Dubstep
PonyFireStone has returned to the pony music scene with this brilliant remix of Koa‘s Broken Wings, their first MLP related track in 3 years. This track starts out with intense dark ambient synths before slowly kicking into the meat and potatoes of the song; Koa’s amazing voice alongside a newer and heavier instrumental with elements of drum n’ bass and dubstep. The colours give us life, and so does this song!
Zaphirom Rashir – Twi’s Dream | Downtempo
This song has a lot of synth, some keyboard, and a little bit of drum that all work together to make an excellent and relaxing piece of music. It’s not too fast, not too slow, and is definitely filled with emotion and passion.
FrøstFyre – Insanity | Complextro
This is an EDM of fully diverse Insanity is as I like to say. An earful to take in from FrøstFyre. I guess that’s logical. Given this tune is supposed to embody the inside of Bookhorse’s complex mind. You will travel to every part of her brain with this maze of this very cool and unique musical composure. It’s fast, it’s wacky, it’s different. As always, This Qilin asks you to judge for yourself. And try not to freak out like our adorkable Alicorn.
Spikey Wikey – Booty Time | Trap
Saucy visuals warning! Another track available on the newly-released album Party’s Over, this daring experiment is certainly bringing the fun and joining Pinkie’s Element that way! Featuring art by OmegaOzone, the saucy Trap beat has Pinkie herself presenting her… assets, thanks to masterful vocal chopping, not without reminding of the art present in some MLPYTP. Definitely an awesome initiative!
Spikey Wikey – Party’s Over VIP | Gabber
We’re all mad here… A most tasteful re-imagining of Party Of One, this story-centered renewed take on the collab Party’s Over by Spikey has also got a short fanfic to go along with it (dark content warning!), and by reading it prior you really get to appreciate all the next-level story-telling in the track! This is part of a brand new album from the musician, also titled Party’s Over!
Viricide Filly – This Place Will Never Let Me Leave | Album | Experimental / House
Viricide Filly brings around a brand new and brilliantly experimental album named This Place Will Never Let Me Leave. Introduce yourself with the title track, a melodic exposition that shows to you the noisy ambitions and grainy invasions of the album. Stick around for the trance-like air and eerie vocal samples of Face Your Fears, You’ll Disappear and All As Small As You, the sinister, silent, and uncannily ambient finisher On the Other Side of the City, and the crunch of the melodies in Glacia Maxima. Eleanor’s Elegy, acting as my personal favorite on the album, incorporates intricate rhythms and piercingly melodic chords. Industrial influences run strong with this one, especially with the track climbingclimbingclimbingCLIMBING. Such influences make it very reminiscent of witch house. This album also includes a consistent narrative to it, shown by the artist’s description and naming. If you wish for a refreshing interpretation of house music, I’ve no doubt this album will satisfy any of those yearnings.
Editor’s note: Also check out the mane album Yet Sightless!
[P@D] Niłch’i Poni – Memories of Ambrosia | Downtempo / Liquid Drum & Bass
An absolute masterpiece taking you emotionally from the very start, Niłch’i Poni‘s contribution to Ponies at Dawn Eternal is an experience to say the least. Taking you through unknown realms, showcasing insane sound design and captivating atmospheres, the piece then uplifts you with the power of DnB with such an intense part, complete with deep bass and here again, a lot of emotion to complete the otherworldly journey through sound. A pre-release from Drumscape Library!
Dijit – Peppermint (feat. Puffy) (DeaDmau6 Remix) | Future Bass
Quite an emotional remix of Dijit‘s original track, this new musical endeavor by DeaDmau6 is giving a new spin to the original vocal chops with this slower play, and provides a new instrumental accompaniment that empowers the emotion gotten from the chops with a powerful deep bass and ambient melodies. That makes for such a creative contrast and dynamic with the vocals, and sparks a certain magic that I couldn’t explain with words.
